Raid Essentials Ant, Spider & Roach Killer Aerosol Spray, Child & Pet Safe, Kills Insects Quickly, for Indoor Use, Rosemary Mint Scent, 10 fl oz

I was a little skeptical about how it would work since it uses essential oils as a base. It actually works well for on-contact killing of insects though! I have a 1 year old baby, a dog, and a cat so I like to be careful what kinds of insecticides I use in our home. And we live in Houston, so bugs are a constant issue. I’ve used it, and it works. Plus if you like the smell of Rosemary and mint, the smell is so refreshing. Would highly recommend!It’s only downsides are it’s only for on-contact killing, and can’t be used effectively for border protection from bugs coming into your home, and it’s oily since it comes from essential oils. But hey, it works as advertised! I would personally give it a 4.8 star rating. It doesn’t quite check all the boxes, but it does a great job overall.

I have a cat and this is definitely safe to use in the house and outside the house. It has a pleasant mint smell. It keeps the ants and other bugs away.

Stopped our ant problems.

Smell is decent for using indoors. It’s not AS effective as regular raid, but I expected that considering it’s intended to be pet and kid friendly. Our regular stuff kills instantly. This is a slower effect but does work great for preventative spraying

Kill almost all type of bugs. In seconds and the smell is very fresh and pets/people friendly.

It does work, however the smell is so over powering that it's toxic. Regular raid you can spray it, it smells bad but you can leave and go shopping, or out to eat and come back and the smell is gone. This stuff smells so bad that you can spray it, clean it up, leave for work, come home and complain about how bad it STILL smells, sleep another night, wake up with a massive headache, go to work and come home and it STILL SMELLS.And!!! It's so frickin' oily that it leaves a residue on everything that requires more scrubbing than if I had just doused my counter tops with regular raid and tried to clean that off. I got a little of this stuff on my bathroom mirror and it looks like I tried to wipe my mirror down with crisco or something after trying to wash it off. I can deal with the oil, but the smell is absolutely intolerable. Seriously, just DON'T.

I’ve purchased this product twice now because it works so well I’ve not only used it at my house but my grandma’s and I have a small kid. It’s so nice having peace of mind knowing you can prevent bugs from getting in while knowing it’s a non-toxic product!

The nozzle doesn't work. It dribbles out instead of spraying.
